1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The regeneration of injured or damaged tissues by cell delivery approaches requires the fabrication of cell carriers (e.g., microspheres, MS) that allow for cell delivery to limit cells spreading from the injection site. Ideal MS for cell delivery should allow for cells adhesion and proliferation on the MS before the injection, while they should allow for viable cells release after the injection to promote the damaged tissue regeneration. We optimized a water-in-oil emulsion method to obtain gelatin MS crosslinked by methylenebisacrylamide (MBA). The method we propose allowed obtaining spherical, chemically crosslinked MS characterized by a percentage crosslinking degree of 74.5 ± 2.1%. The chemically crosslinked gelatin MS are characterized by a diameter of 70.9 ± 17.2 μm in the dry state and, at swelling plateau in culture medium at 37 °C, by a diameter of 169.3 ± 41.3 μm. The MS show dimensional stability up to 28 days, after which they undergo complete degradation. Moreover, during their degradation, MS release gelatin that can improve the engraftment of cells in the injured site. The produced MS did not induce any cytotoxic effect in vitro and they supported viable L929 fibroblasts adhesion and proliferation. The MS released viable cells able to colonize and proliferate on the tissue culture plastic, used as release substrate, potentially proving their ability in supporting a simplified in vitro wound healing process, thus representing an optimal tool for cell delivery applications.
